Gang Charges

In the 1980’s Law Enforcement and State Law Makers became very interested in cracking down on Criminal Street Gangs. In the past two decades, they have passed laws outlawing street gang activity and creating additional punishment for people committing gang crimes. As a result, a crime committed in furtherance of gang activity can result in a much higher sentence than the same crime without gang ties. These sentences can range from probation to prison to life sentences to even the death penalty. If you are charged with a gang crime, you need to take it very seriously.
